08/19 - JD Custom Ringtone edition

PrintNow that cell phones have improved in sound quality over the years from polyphonic ringtones to now full blown mp3 ringtones, users can express their personality through their ringtone. I recall getting my first PDA phone right when Jackass 2 game out on DVD. I became hooked with the music video they had at the end of that movie. The Jackass crew lipsynced to Peaches - F the Pain Away. I liked it so much that I had to download it as my ringtone the first second I could. Well later that week, I ended up going to a packed sneak preview showing of 300. Since my PDA phone was really high tech and complicated, I ended up thinking that I turned my phone on silent, but actually turned it to LOUD. Well during a quiet part of the movie, my cell phone decides to ring, and the entire theater kept on yelling expletives at me and I frantically tried to shut off my phone. It was a touch screen phone so I fumbled around trying to silence the sound, and then I tried just rejecting the call, but the entire song continued to play. If you aren't aware, this song is just full of profanity...so the fact that hundreds in the theater could hear with mp3 clarity what was coming out of my phone made it a lot more embarassing than if I had one of those Nokia phones from the late 90s.
So Bedge...what is your main ringtone? Do you have custom ringtones for certain people? If you had Ben, Dave, or any other Bedger in your cell phone and had to give them a custom ringtone, what would it be?

I hate vibrate.
It scares me really, really bad. I figure a hornets nest has somehow lodged itself in my pocket. I jump. I scream. I run around. When I finally answer the phone, the other person asks why they can sense fear and panic dripping from my every word. My heart basically stops beating for a while.
Other than that it’s ok.

When my phone is on vibrate, I can never tell if it's ringing or I have gas.

I hate talking on the phone, a lot. When I am old I will be weird about phones, I can already feel it.
ya i don’t call much. mainly text. its a lot easier. plus you don’t really interrupt conversations with people around you by taking a phone call.
a lot of people are like: ‘whats so great about texting? why not actually talk to someone?’ but texting is a lot more convenient

How so? I can get alot more information per second talking then texting.

It depends
if you are calling to say “I am running late, be there in 5 minutes”, then a text is faster
not following
maybe I’m not getting it but I can say ""I am running late, be there in 5 minutes" faster then I can text it.
Everything comes gradually and at its appointed hour--Ovid
But then you have to call the person
wait for them to pick up, and then say “I am running late, be there in 5 minutes” and then they say “ok” and then you say “later”, and that assumes that they don’t ask things like “what happened?”
all the better then
to just show up 5 minutes late…

its better for me. if im out to dinner with someone i don’t want to take a call. just a text to tell them im busy or we can hang later is better than the ringer going off, bothering anybody, then talking to someone on the phone

Text is good at a dinner party to tell the person across the table that you’re going to punch their kittens and knock over their mail box—It maintains your mask of civility…

my point exactly
why even bother… I didn’t call or text you back… translation: I was busy
Everything comes gradually and at its appointed hour--Ovid
Oh, text is much easier
At least it used to be before my phone’s buttons wore down and need to be hit twice to work.
But a quick text, or an explanation that comes out better in writing, or when you really don’t want to talk and you know if you call the person they’ll want to talk when all you want to do is relay one simple piece of info OR ask them something…
Texting is nice. Just like email is nice!

I'm already wierd about phone (does that make me old?)
I hate the way they make me feel like Pavlov’s dog, responding to the bell. I refuse to let the phone overtake my life, and that really irks a lot of people. I’ve stopped telling people that I screen my calls (I get a ton of wrong numbers) just because they act like it’s immoral.
I like this story:
By nature, French artist Edgar Degas was conservative. His friend the etcher Jean-Louis Forain believed in progress. Forain had recently installed that newfangled invention, the telephone. Arranging to have a friend phone him during the meal, he invited Degas to dinner. The phone rang; Forain rushed to answer it, then returned, beaming with pride. Degas merely said, "So that’s the telephone. It rings and you run."

I don't think being weird about a phone is an old person thing
But I can see myself becoming Howard Hughes-esque about phones…
Just always hated ’em.
Because no one calls me to tell me they love me on them :-(
I hate phones too
My wife works 5 minutes away from home and she’ll call me on the way home to tell me she is on the way home and what should we do for dinner. I always say, “Can’t we have this conversation face to face in 5 minutes?” Then I get in trouble.
Blazers-themed ringtones!
It’s not a very effective ringtone, but for my college roommates (diehard L*kers fans…) I have the call of B-Roy’s gamewinner against Houston. For text messages I get the horns playing the Blazers fade-to-commercial ditty.
My phone is hella old yo
It dies if I try to talk on it as well, because the battery is dead y’all.
I should upgrade but I like having a built in excuse not to have to talk to peoples.

FanPost rough draft
I ain’t gonna lie, I never liked Bill Schonely. You know I ain’t a hater so hear me out. The first thing I gotta say is that Schonely is old. Not just old like Kevin Willis, I’m talking Methuselah old. Schonely is so old that he called the first ever basketball game of Bedrock against Hollyrock. Fred Flintstone won the game with an ally-rock pass to Joe Rockhead. Heck, Bill Schonely is so old, he forgot how to smile.
Now, J-Quick is reporting that fans will be forced to hear Bill Schonely’s old dusty rusty voice when he calls the exhibition game in the Memorial Coliseum on October 14th. At first I was staunchly apposed hearing his use of catchphrases that would seem dated in a Dead Sea scroll, then I thought about what two4larue said in the throwback jersey thread, "It’ll be great to hear Bill call a quarter of that game on the radio. It should be required listening for every Blazer fan under 30."
Blazers fans must learn about past mistakes and there is no better way than to force them to hear the voice of the Jail Blazers. Just as it is important that we never forget the atrocities performed by the Nazis in WWII, we also can never forget the pain and suffering Blazers fans felt during the Jail Blazers era. I can think of no better way teach such a valuable lesson, than with the voice, and I dare say, the face and mastermind of the Jail Blazer era, The Shonz.
Let’s face the facts Blazers fans; the Kato Kaelin of NBA broadcasters is not going anywhere. We will have to endure the voice that sounds like a tiny rusty cheese grater scraping against your eardrums so we might as well make the best of it. Be sure to teach your children the true meanings of “Bingo Bango Bongo” (hate crimes against beatniks), “Climb the golden ladder” (sexual deviance involving frozen urine), through the cyclops at mid court" (sodomy), and “Lickety brindle up the middle” (referencing licking the adhesive while rolling a marijuana cigarette). Children need to know the truth.
Thank you for reading. This is the first of my four part series exposing the truths regarding the Blazers. Part two is "Brian Grant = Soft," part three is, "Terry Porter’s low BBIQ," and part four is "Sabonis the Injury-prone Bust."

A three-pointer is not a "triple." A triple is a hit in baseball.
A three-pointer is not a "trey." A trey is either an ESPN sportscaster or something that bad spellers eat cafeteria food on. - Dave on Mar 20, 2009 10:00 PM PDT

What gets me is
that people (i.e. the media) largely act as if he is an elite QB and they are unable to discuss him objectively.
I think it has to do with all the highlight reels of him that are out there… make it so they can talk themselves into it… plus, aside from some gray hair, he largely looks the same as he did 10 years ago… he just can’t tell which team to throw to anymore.

Favre has become extremely overrated
The guy was good, but off the top of my head I can name about 8 qb’s who are more accomplished than him:
Montana
Aikman
Bradshaw
Unitas
Elway
Marino
Active: P. Manning, Tom Brady.
He won one superbowl and lost another. Already Ben Roethlisberger has more championships than he ever won.

Leafy summed it perfectly above.
Pi and Seven are great.
I’ve actually watched both of those multiple times. There’s some rough scenes there, but nothing as outright depressing as Requiem For a Dream. Haven’t seen Funny Games yet, either version. I’ll have to check that out sometime.
Yes! Yes! In the face!
I love Seven.
That movie doesn’t really have disturbing scenes either. Everyone thinks it does, but it’s a testament to Fincher’s direction that he was able to create that type of atmosphere without showing anything extremely graphic. It’s mostly description.
Pi is in my Netflix queue right now. Funny Games I didn’t bother with. Torture porn doesn’t do anything for me.

it's not only about disturbing scenes
for me it’s the whole feeling after watching the movie.
For example, Pi does not have that many shocking scenes (off the top of my head, the drill) but it’s the whole atmosphere of the movie that it’s so oppressing.
Same for Seven.
Se7en is fantastic

When my son calls, the phone sings “Fishin’ In The Dark” by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (he’s a great fisherman)
When my daughter calls, it sings “There She Goes” by Sixpence None The Richer (if you knew her, you’d understand)
And when the parents call, I hear “These Days Aren’t Crazy Enough” by the Pulsators.
Anyone else calls and it’s “One Love” by the man himself…Bob Marley.

cell phones are evil (rant)
a true bane on society. I suppose a necessary evil to some degree, but I don’t like what I see of most people using cell phones. It’s like their lives are all wonderful when that text message comes through, or in sheer bliss when yet still another call provides interruption of a what was a face-to-face conversation. You know people’s self-worth is questionable when a ring-tone makes their day complete.
And when are people going to start getting fined for driving and using a cell phone?. I truly believe they are as dangerous as drunk drivers. I’ve yet to see one … person … who is actually paying attention to the road or other drivers when celling and driving. There’s some kind of out-of-body experience thingy going on with these people.
Oh well, it shouldn’t be too long before the brain cancer epidemic gets enough attention to snap these addicts out of their cellular euphoria.

a cheapie tracphone, but it’s for work purposes mainly and not a conversation piece. I admit they are convenient and often useful so yes I’m a hypocrite I guess.
The other night had friends over for croquet and I swear every 5 minutes one of their cell phones were ringing with texts or wasssup calls. So they’d have to stop playing to return the text or chat. At one point I asked them why not turn off your cells for the evening and they all told me essentially to get bent.

Not even close.
Folks here are actually pretty good about stopping at stop signs and lights, probably because there’s always so much cross traffic. Turn signals, I’d say most drivers use them most of the time, if only to avoid getting passed while turning.
Speeding? Even the cops do it. When they don’t, traffic piles up behind them and it gets on the news radio traffic reports.
I meant to say there could be other number 2s
speeding is so clearly number 1 it’s not even against the law anymore

I got a speeding ticket last year, so I'll have to disagree with you there.
What would be a good Number 2… Tailgating would be my guess, followed by red-light running.
why just cell phones?
why not ban conversations in cars, smoking, eating, putting on makeup…and now that there is mobile internet just ban that too.

I have become accustomed to them….but I do wish people would be more thoughtful about their use…….do I really need to hear someone’s mindless blather in line in a store?
I would SO like to be able to hand out tickets to people talking on their cell phones while driving….I was almost run over walking in a crosswalk by a person talking on their cellphone that never even saw me. I doubt they even saw my upraised arm and one-fingered salute as they drove away.

I don’t really want an iPhone because everybody has one and I’m a bit of an apple hater. The more I research and think about it, the more I feel like I’m just going to settle on the G1 or myTouch/HTC Magic. They both have most of the features I want. I can also get them for under $200. My friend is going to renew his contract with t-mobile soon and he’s already using an unlocked iPhone so he said I could use his phone upgrade if I wanted.

how much would he weigh if he was roughly 6 feet tall?
"It’s a good ol’ fashioned Rip City beat down!"
140lbs
It feels like I am always criticizing him, and I know it looks bad as an Oden proponent that I am…
But why has he not gotten any bigger since joining the NBA? Texas has no weight training program, as we saw with LMA and Durant. He has added no muscle in 2 years… he looks very soft and weak.
I don’t get it, for a guy who works so hard.
And it's not just about adding muscle
He hasn’t become wiry strong, or more developed on his thin frame.
How long did it take Rip Hamilton to look more developed?
Rip and Durant seem to have similar body types.
I also remember there being some talk that part of the reasoning for MJ shipping Rip out of Washington was that Rip’s body just wasn’t developing and adding muscle like they thought it should.
Rip back in college
Rip now-ish
They got different body types to me
Rip is more “ripped”, muscular, leaner even.
Durant’s body isn’t only skinny (which insn’t bad on it’s own), it looks SOFT.
Prince, Rip, Batum, all skinny guys who are muscular… Durant is de-muscular.
Z-Bo looks soft and mushy, but he is strong
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
Yeah, Z-Bo has that body type
You sometimes see it in bigger black woman, this smooth softness that doesn’t show muscles at all no matter how much Z-Bo works out. Which he allegedly always has.
Hmm… guys who look soft, muscle wise…
That’s a tough one. Because it’s not softness from being fat, where we could name a few guys like that, but softness from no muscle TONE at all. Even the dirt skinny guys like Corey Brewer have muscle tone.
Durant’s body remind me more of a naturally skinny guy who doesn’t work out a lot. In real life, I know lots of people who look like that, but in the NBA… no. I can’t think of any, besides guys who are slightly chubby or came into the league chubby, like Marcus Williams or something. Lazy guys.
And Durant is a gym rat, so he isn't lazy
Man Durant is a weird case to me. Every other skinny guy like him has veins popping, you can see his muscles under the skin…
I’m not even sure of my ‘point’, if there is one. Just a weird body type to still be so undeveloped after 2 years, even by just growing and getting older as a man, and not just an athlete.
I have worries similar about Rubio’s body.
Maybe Durant is such a gym rat that he never makes it over to the weight set
It isn’t unheard of among the genetic freaks that inhabit the NBA for players to not lift weights. Paul Shirley once said on a BS podcast that Amare was forbidden from lifting weights because he would put on so much muscle that he would start looking like a Lavar Arrington.
Either that or he is ashamed for being able to only bench press 185 lbs once at the rookie combine that he has decided to never lift another barbell the rest of his life.
I remember an article about Durant earlier this year when he talked about never lifting on game day… he said that he was shocked after running into LeBron in the OKC weight room the morning of their game… promised to start lifting more.
"If the Lakers are Hollywood, then we are South Central." - Clipper fan.
Rudy seems to be a bit like that, always in the gym even if you don't ask him, but you have to beat him into the weight room
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
I'd describe his body as soft as well
He hasn’t hit the weights yet… and again, not to get BIG, but to get wiry and strong. Pack as much lean muscle on as he can on that thin frame.
He’ll take the hits he’ll take when cutting backdoor and play defense a lot better that way.
I do remember Durant saying that he doesn’t want to get too big for fear of his jumper deserting him.
"If the Lakers are Hollywood, then we are South Central." - Clipper fan.
That is what usually happens
I’ve lost track of the great NBA players who started out skinny but amazing shooters who then lost their jumper by adding the minimal amount of strength necessary to be a SF in the NBA.
Durant just doesn’t want to be another statistic, and who can blame him.
yep. Look at Tayshaun… ever since his triceps became visible, he lost all ability to shoot. Tragic, really.

Durant seems to develop a similar body to Tayshaun Prince
Interestingly Prince is among the most durable athletes in the NBA, so he is skinny yet not frail.
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
Yeah, I don't think Durant is frail
Just… total lack of muscles. I still say Prince is more ripped and toned than Durant, and came into the league more ripped and toned.
It looks like a combo of not much muscle, a non-stellar body fat percentage, and an off-season.
In Rip's college photo
He looks muscular to me… but obviously not a body that will get huge big ol’ muscles.
And I don’t think Durant should have big ol’ muscles, not by a long shot. But he should have some signs of muscularature (new word) in his legs, arms, etc… not just smoothness.
Even with genetics that don’t allow for him to get buff, by being in the gym he can get ripped. I dunno…
he may just be lifting
to avoid hypertrophy, which is common in cycling
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever

The NBA should do a gender test
Or put him on a weight gain plan. 2000 additional calories, swim training, weight training, …
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
I have a skinny frame. I used to eat 5,000-6,000 calories a day.
Working-out or not, I couldn’t gain a pound for 15 years. When I finally did, at 35, it wasn’t muscle. Now I’m getting back down to my previous weight. You either have the build for it or you don’t.
I wonder whether steroids would help Durant add muscle. Not that he should, of course. I’m just curious about whether it would work with a body type like that.

not necessarily
I know Norsk and I disagree on this, but from what I have read they make you recover faster and that is their usefulness, but if you have a frame that does not easily add muscle then using them to that end will not do you much good.

Infection kills live tissue to the point of leaving scar tissue. Do not wait, better to find out you do not need antibiotics, then to need them and find out late.

Could be old chewed food rotting in your tooth holes
In bootcamp that took out the wisdom teeth of about 50 guys one day and lots of guys had to go back to get rice pulled out of their tooth holes. It was stinky too.
When my wisdom tooth were growing in
It kinda hurt, and they made a space/hole in the area they were growing in and it really hurt for a bit and after a week or so I finally dug into the hole with a toothpick and pulled out a g’oll dang SESAME SEED. It felt instantly better after I removed it.
It was gross.
After that though, the wisdom toothses got done growing in and all was right in the world and my gap in my front teeth was closed a bit. Man, that sesame seed hurt though…
Tom & Mort reminded me of a roommate who had that problem
She went out an bought some gel for baby teething pain and used it to numb the hole before digging around for the food particle that was bugging her. I always though that was pretty smart.
I'm amazed they didn't prescribe antibiotics immediately.

Now I know who is likely the longest time on staff with the Blazers (apart from Paul Allen, and maybe some unknown admins in the organization). You won’t guess who ;-)
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
I think we have a winner
He joined in 1994. The next is Bob Medina in 1997.
I haven’t looked up announcers yet. I somehow don’t see them as part of the team/staff.
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
It's funny that assistant coaches seem to regularly leave soon after a new head coach comes in, but nobody has found it a good idea to replace them
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
Well if ya did consider them as part of the staff
Mike Rice is in the above 1991 photo, so he still calls Jay Jenson a newbie.
Maybe he left in between. Jim Lynam was an assistant in the photo below from 83, then left, and returned in the last decade for some years. But yeah, maybe Ricey is the longest-tenured Blazer. I won’t put him on the map though.
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
He went from radio to tv and back again
I don’t mind him not being included, though you shall always know in that empty abyss you call a soul that Mike Rice IS Mr. Blazer.
Yuckety Yuck, who ever thought those sweaters were a good idea (1990-91)

Photos are taken after the trade deadline, I believe
I can’t remember when the trade took place that year though. That’s a good explanation though and I shall use it for all future queries into this matter.

How long until the Suns sign Tony Durant? They seem to collect the worse brothers of good players recently (Lopez, Griffin)
"I'm addicted to polo y'all...respect my fresh" - Travis25Outlaw
Haha
Is he actually a player somewhere, like in college?
Or is he like Outlaw’s brother, fat and passed out on the pool table.
He is, or was. He is 3 years older than Kevin.
“I think he can shoot better than me,” he says of Tony Durant, a 6-71/2, 225-pound sophomore forward at Butler (Kan.) Community College. “He’s stronger than me, too. He’s got more post moves.” Kevin smiles. “But I’m going to catch him one day.”
Tony Durant is averaging a team-high 16.2 points and 6.4 rebounds for Butler (9-11)
Artest’s brother might be another possibility.

Creepiest show ever. I can’t stand it… wife gets sucked in sometimes. It just makes me angry to watch the parents and creepy kids.
I almost did that sort of joke too
I was gonna keep with the ‘makes me angry’ theme and say I get angry at how the kids keep flirting with me in my head while I watch it and when I make love to my wife.
Ugh, they’re so sexualized on the show, gives me the heebie jeebies.
Yeah
The show should be called, “Take my child to protective services.” I’ve only watched one show but a lady was going off on her kid for not being as good or as pretty as her sister. One lady complained about having a son because she didn’t get to dress him up as much as a girl.

They showed a clip of a judge saying the bathing suits they allow, “but we don’t allow thongs of course… some of these girls just don’t have the body for it”. SIX YEAR OLDS.

Poor wife is still at work!
But she was 2nd chair in her very first case that went to trial (which is a big deal for a lady who has only been a lawyer for 2 years), and she kicked butt and everything went great.
Almost TOO great, though, so she is worried…
She is defending a teacher and a school being accused of sexual harassment by two crappy parents and their two crappy kids. They don’t like the teacher because he is gay. It is at a private Jewish school.
Even their “awful sexual harassment stories”, told from their POV in the worst way possible, aren’t even sexual harassment. But who knows with a jury…
Does she work for Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe?

She should be making twice as much as she does and for a twice as good firm. Stupid Obama needs to get crackin’!
Here's one story:
Back during the election, teacher is talking about the candidates. Discusses an article out that day about their religion. Says Obama is Christian. Kid who is accusing him of sexual harassment says Obama is a Muslim.
Teacher says “no, he’s Christian, he was sworn in on the bible etc etc” and kid says “if he is a Christian why is he circumcised? It proves he is Muslim” and the teacher says “aren’t you circumcised? Does that mean you are Muslim?” SEXUAL HARASSMENT.
Another is he showed some cartoon comedy video about the war of 1812. In the background of one of the scenes is scribblings on a cartoon chalkboard, where you can see the cartoon outline of a weiner and balls. It is less than 2 secs and you only see it if you are looking for it (it was not the focal point of the shot). The kid says that is sexual harassment.
Meanwhile, same kid was kicked out of a previous school for drawing weiners on the toilets in the bathroom, and drawing poop on the toilet seats.
The kids came across like little crap holes and the parents extra creepy and weird, so hopefully she gets a win under her belt…

The other kid in the case, he was asleep in class, and the teacher flicked water on him.
SEXUAL HARASSMENT.
I swear those are the full stories. No creepy lines, nothing sexually suggestive, the other kids testified he never talks about his sexual persuasion or anything sexual at all in class. It is crazy.

Civil lawsuits are tons of fun to read
The plaintiff lawyer writes it up as is the defendant is the worth person to ever breathe air. I love reading those. When we get ‘em at work, it’s like “Plaintiff then maliciously, and without regard for human life, rammed his Geo Metro into my client’s frail Ford F350. My client suffered permanent, devastating injuries that will no doubt leave him in pain for the rest of his life.”
Truth: Bumper scratches, 1 urgent care visit.
The lesson as always: people are dumb.

last year, we took them to Europe (our anniversary but wanted them to be with us)….5 countries in 3 weeks…my daughter, at that time was 3, asked if she can stay in Paris….hahaha
so now both of them go through security by themselves..take their shoes off, backpack, etc…hahahah

I have been giving some thought to the whole twitter thing
One way to play it would be to substiute the word tweet for the Zach word,for example,tweet you,what do you tweeting mean? That way whenever you needed a mod you could just tweet Prez at the pizza place

I've had Moxy Cola
not sure if I ever want it again. Moxy Cream Soda might be good though.
Without you out there, we're nowhere here
I saw one of those in my yard today. I think it's a dog-eared finch.
It’s believed they came in shipping crates from Europe and are now spreading throughout the land.

what’s your major? Have you declared?

it's basically pre-law
although technically it’s a “liberal arts” major

I think I'm going to follow Bill Simmons' advice
and head south somewhere. I really liked Austin the one day I was there in Texas but idk if I can get into the UT law school
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
yuck no thanks
there is something so unappealing about the north east. I wouldn’t mind vacationing in NYC but I certainly would not want to live there
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
they were one of the schools that really made an effort to talk to me… but living in New York just wasn’t right for me.

eh, getting recruited is easy. Getting accepted is another matter.

rereading it, it did sound snobby. I meant more along the lines of “I was unsure of living in New York so I didn’t pursue it.”

haha i was just giving you a hard time
getting “recruited” by NYU is pretty impressive. and I am not a fan of living in New York too
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
and the tuition at those schools is just insane.

That's why Hubby left when he was around 20.
He wasn’t a fan either.

20s in New York is different than 25-35 in NY…he never reconsidered going back?

Go to NYU Stern :)
In one of my former companies the Taiwanese CFO went there. He CFOed circles around his German counterpart who had mainly been trained in-house.

Travis25OutlawAfter a long day of workin out, there’s NOTHING more relaxing than segwaying! I advise you all to invest in one. You won’t regret it!
u heard the man.

I always thought a good way to keep neighbor kids out of your yard
Would be to fill a bunch of 5 gallon buckets and leave them out so the parents got the hint.
While looking for that pic, I found this how to webpage for eradicating a baby infestation.
Could Microsoft please freeze development of Windows on the state of version 7 for companies and people that want backwards compatibility and start fresh from the ground up?
Vista sucks, and Windows 7 still brings most of the same old junk with it. Whenever I just want to do something with it, there are new updates, new virus definitions, new everything. And it just isn’t user friendly and productive.

I also hate progress bars that don’t show progress, but just go back and forth with no indication how long this will take to show “yeah, we know you are already waiting too long, but hey, at least the program hasn’t crashed yet”. Thanks Microsoft and McAffee and Co.

At 93 it feels hotter than Rudy's five point play. I would die in a state like Arizona.

93 is child's play

Yeah, but it's a dry heat. :p

O'Neal stole Nash's idea
Shortly after O’Neal was traded to the Suns in February 2008, Nash mentioned to his new teammate a reality show he was pursuing. It would feature the Suns point guard taking on professional athletes in their own sport.
The topic didn’t come up again until early in the 2008-09 season, when O’Neal boarded the Suns bus and told the team he would be starring in a new reality show in which he would be taking on, you got it, professional athletes in their own sport.
“You mean the idea you stole from me?” one Suns representative said he heard Nash say.
Nash eventually sought out an entertainment lawyer, according to sources, which is why he now has an executive-producer credit and the compensation that comes with it.
Nash just can't get things done. That's why he has no rings, and O'Neal has 4.

he's 31, I would guess his playing career is one the line.
Godell will likely suspend him to, after serving time…
